Save You (Radio Edit)

from Save You by Denial Waits

lyrics

grew up without your father
when your birthday came around he wouldn't even bother to
give you a call or stop by for awhile
just a mention of attention would've gave you a smile

and all the while you just crawled through the days
livin’ life kinda like trying to get through a maze
filled with trap doors
weak floors
alleyways and sneakaways with the new whores
cause it's life or
death
and you've got nothing left
you've got a job but it don't pay rent

break your back just to share the same room in
a dirty house with others just as fucked as you
and you
knew
it didn't feel quite right
didn't deserve this kind of life

take another hit and maybe you'll be free
from the pain and the misery and the things we don't see
but me?
i saw you for who you really are
i told you that you're strong that and that you're gonna go far

but you'd rather sit down and cry
you just give in to the loneliness that eats you inside
and i...

i know what you're going through
(i’ll save you if it kills me)
little girl tryin' to hide a bruise
(i’ll save you if it kills me)
you fear there's nothing that you can do
(i’ll save you if it kills me)
you pray to god it's over soon
(i’ll save you if it kills me)

one night you got tired of the fight
decided it was time to start livin’ your life
say goodbye to the stupid wannabe
pushing you around, hurting you physically
and emotionally

that's when you bumped into me
pulled me up in your tangled web of fantasies
you seemed like such a mystery
like a shiny diamond sparkling and glistening

but i should have been listening
to my conscience and internal reasoning
instead of getting ahead of myself
thinking only about my feelings and nobody else
well

i was just making things complicated
this apology inside of me's a little belated
by now, i hope your hate has faded

if not, i understand
i guess that's what fate is / what faith is

i'm a little faithless
i'm old for my age and feeling a little jaded

well that's the way it is
well that's the way it is

i know what you're going through
(i’ll save you if it kills me)
little girl tryin' to hide a bruise
(i’ll save you if it kills me)
you fear there's nothing that you can do
(i’ll save you if it kills me)
you pray to God it's over soon
(i’ll save you if it kills me)
it’s hard to walk around in your shoes
(i’ll save you if it kills me)
little girl's gonna sing the blues
(i’ll save you if it kills me)
i’ll do my best to be there for you
(i’ll save you if it kills me)
you and me, we're gonna make it through
(i’ll save you if it kills me)
